And nearby the Moon Lake, or Eding Lake in local language, the lowest water surface is 154 meters below the sea level, the second lowest continental point in the world after the Dead Sea. Turpan is called the Land of Fire, which was derived from the intense summer temperature, the highest ever recorded was 47.5oC and in summer the ground surface temperature is about 70oC. The Depression is characterized by high temperature and rare perspiration, so it is hot but it is not wet, during summer, although it is extremely hot, the streets are full of people.

I like reading very much, I think that reading should be rewritten to read, "yue" because, only love reading, to see the content in mind, you cant really get harvest, not see the calculate, so it is no use. I look at the great man, learn a great "spirit" and "attitude". Saw the little puppet, inspired my imagination. Read the Snow White, let me know what can not believe others; Read the ugly duckling, let me not from the face, looks after judging other people.
People like to read books, always immersed in the interesting story book, let me the heart opens a window, let my world a better place! And I often forget to do this because of the reading, I often do homework in the reading, the result be mother scold badly; And the one who doesnt like reading a book, picked up a thick book, feel like a math exam one hundred so pain, pain annoyed to want to commit suicide, at that time, my mood is like a charred by the raging fire of forest, so empty.
Dont like to read books, and is full of video games, like a beggar, need our help; But while some people like to read, and finally still addicted to video games, even if used to get more knowledge, also will forget the pleasure of reading.
我觉得,阅读是会让人期待的,它彷彿是带我进入了故事中,因为不管是文字的长短或插图,都会让我有深深的体会,而且文字也好像长出了翅膀,那种感觉真是美好。
我非常喜欢阅读,我觉得阅读应该 要改写成“悦”读,因为,只有喜爱阅读,把看到的内容记在脑子里,才能真正得到收获,不是看了就算了,这样是没有用的。我看了伟人传,学到了伟人的“精神”与“态度”;看了小木偶,启发了我的想像力;阅读了白雪公主,让我知道不可以乱相信别人;看过丑小鸭,让我不会从小的时候的面貌,来判断别人以后的长相。
喜欢读书的人,总是沉浸在故事书的趣味之中,让我的心灵打开了一扇窗,让我的世界变得更加美好!而我,常因为看书而忘了要做该做的事,我常常在写功课时看书,结果被妈妈骂得很惨;而不喜欢看书的人,感觉拿起一本厚厚的书,像是要写一百张数学考卷那么痛苦,痛苦烦闷到都想自杀了,那时候,我的心情就像被熊熊大火烧过的森林,那么的空虚。
不喜欢读书,而满脑子都是电玩的人,就像乞丐一样,需要我们帮忙;但有些人虽然喜欢阅读,最后还是迷上了电玩,就算以前得到了再多的知识,也还是会忘记阅读的乐趣的。

篇12:1清明节介绍英语作文
全文共 1158 字
+ 加入清单In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.
People love to fly kites during the Qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the Qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars and therefore are called "god‘s lanterns."
The Qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past the Qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979 "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.
相反的悲伤的墓扫墓,人们也希望享受春天的这一天。清明节是一个阳光灿烂的日子,树和草都变绿了,大自然又恢复了活力。自古以来,人们都有踏青的习俗。此时到处是游客。
人们喜欢在清明节期间放风筝。风筝放飞其实并不限于清明节。它的独特之处在于人们在白天不放风筝,晚上也放风筝。一串串的小灯笼拴在风筝上或是线上看起来像闪亮的星星,因此被称为“上帝的灯笼”。
清明节也是一个植树的时候,树苗的成活率很高,树木生长快。在过去,清明节被称为“植树节”。但自1979以来,“植树节”定在3月12日根据公历。

篇20:介绍妈妈英语

+ 加入清单Mother’s day
In the U.S., mother’s day is a holiday celebrated on the second sunday in May. It is a day when children honor their mothers with cards, gifts, and flowers. It was first observed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1907. Long before that, there were days honoring mothers even in ancient Greece. In those days, however, it was Rhea, the mother of the gods who was given honor.
Later, in the 1600s, in England there was an annual observance called "Mothering Sunday". It was celebrated during June, on the fourth sunday. On Mothering Sunday, the servants, who generally lived with their employers, were encouraged to return home and honor their mothers. It was traditional for them to bring a special cake along to celebrate the occasion.
In the U.S., in 1907, Ana Jarvis, from Philadelphia, began a campaign to establish a national mothers day. Jarvis persuaded her mothers church in Grafton, West Virginia to celebrate mothers day on the second anniversary of her mothers death, which was the second sunday in May. The next year mothers day was again celebrated in Philadelphia. Jarvis and others began a letter-writing campaign to ministers, businessmen, and politicians in their quest to establish a national mothers day. They were successful. In 1914, the American president proclaimed mothers day a national observance that was to be held each year on the second sunday of May.
